Awaken From Her Winter Slumber (Pic Heavy)

Well, got the car out, had a bunch of little things that I've done over the winter.
Got the front bumper, hood, and trunk repainted. Painted some carbon fiber eyelids while I was there. Installed RageTek LCA Bushings. Bwoody Catchcan, moved battery to the trunk and pulled the carpet. Got a set of Motorsport Edition wheels. Got a hold of an RB1 nav unit. Got a personalized plate.

In the storage unit you can see the boxes for my new sideskirts and lip kit. Dunno if I'll use them or not yet.

I think that was about it...

And lastly, some photoshoppery

Awesome, and I agree - side skirts FTW. I love the export tails and ACR seats, as well as the chrysler grill... one more thing, I wanna know HOW you did the roll on the rear bumper, been looking at doing mine, but am afraid to bust it/break it/ruin it :lol:

I believe they are CBD, I bought them off someone on here for $30 bucks, I think Henry. They had some damage to them and it showed through after the show re-cleared them so I just had them match them to the body.

Tires are Hankook K106 Series 205-45R16
$55 bucks each at Edgeracing.com
Used them in an autocross the other weekend, gripped really well actually.

:shock: An intresting reaction...not what I was expecting but I'm flattered?

Battery box is from wal-mart, I think $7 bucks or so. Just drilled a couple holes in it and the trunk and bolted it down. Had some stereo wire laying around from my old Lexus, just ran that run the engine bay to the trunk and ran grounds in the front and rear. I just bought some screw in terminals from autozone and hooked the wire up to those, put them on the stock terminals and wraped them in electrical tape. That way I can always go back to using it in the bay if ever needed.

Also, if anybody wants higher res pics, let me know. I resized them three times for the web so they wouldn't take forever to download.

Well I have the side skirts if I want to put them on (Thanks BBR :thumbup: ) I'll mock them up and see how they look. Although it is an ACR, I may keep it the way Dodge wanted. We'll just have to wait and see.

As for the rolling, I did it just like the SRT guys do. There are two tabs on that section of the bumper. Just take them off the crash bar, pull them up and zip tie them to two loops that are alittle bit higher up. I'm sure SRTForums has a howto somewhere.

Yeah, Jason hates me for getting them. I remember when I was picking up the wheels and he was telling how Jason had just sent him a PM saying he would take them and be up there next weekend. I'm waiting for the :ban:

I was thinking about repainting the whole, but too much money, too much work.

Long reply! :shock:

I just noticed that there isn't many pics of the front, I'll work on changing that shortly! Now I need a new sig too...

One thing I want to ask everyone's opinion on. I have a set of Fog deletes that are painted PR4 to match. Never threw them on. What do you guys think? Black or paint matched?
TNK wrote:i freaking love it. and i want higher res pics.
I'll probably throw them in a zip file and upload them or something. I'll work on it tonight. Time to steal more space from Diablo :twisted:

Oh and yes, I need to headlights, had a bulb explode in the passenger one and it's starting to yellow anyway. Racoons sometime soon. Need to pay off my CC which I put the recent paintwork on.
